I live in Breckenridge CO and they are here for two weeks doing test drives. They are all over town mainly off of Tiger road. Stopped by last night and was given a tour of the R1T inside and out. Even saw the camp kitchen. There were about 6 R1T's of various colors. Spoke to them on the large R1S battery pack. It will not be happening so don't get your hopes up.
Did you take any picture and video of the 6 R1's? All would be very grateful.

You might want to try Loge Breckenridge. That is where they are staying. There were 6 of them there yesterday.
Thanks. Might just head up there. Lodge at Breck is the one at the top of Boreas, right? My brother got married there.

You and everyone else mad about "Guide contacts haven't started in [Insert State Here]!" need to relax.

The reason why is because the Denver service center is still under construction. It seems pretty obvious to me and many others that Guide contacts start based on whether a service center is available in a particular region. Once the Denver one is closer to done, I'd pretty much guarantee we'll see Guide contacts start for the Colorado area.

Follow Denver service center construction progress in this thread: https://www.rivianforums.com/forum/...s-retail-locations-list-other-facilities.892/
My post wasn’t meant to be taken seriously.

I agree they are prioritizing deliveries around completed service centers. I’ve been providing updates on the Denver service center since February because it’s less than a mile from me.

The difference is that Rivian isn’t using those other states to promote how awesome the vehicles are for use in that state.

Most of Rivian's marketing has focused on California. Running an off-road Press test drive event in Colorado is probably easier because of the ease of access to the mountains from the Denver airport.

I'm going in tomorrow. Will let you all know if there is Rivian presence and if those trucks are there.
For what it is worth, I asked CS a couple of months ago and was told they were not attending any Auto Shows this year.

Er, can you elaborate on this?
They said due to the 3rd row seating. They would have to remove that in order to have the extra large pack thus removing some utility of the vehicle which they felt was not worth it. They would rather explore different battery technologies in the future that are more efficient and use them in the R1S.

Only snapped too. I asked to take pictures but they did not want me to. If I see them sitting outside again as I have for the past two days and no one around I will snap some more.

Is it just me or in the picture of the white R1T does the person on the far left almost facing the camera look like Nikki from Transport Evolved?
